I scanned through eBay for cheapest, largest pedalboards I could find, and found some really excellent deals. However, I had no idea if all my pedals would actually fit on the board. There was really no way of being able to figure that out. I ordered the new board anyways, and spent HOURS trying to figure out how to fit everything on the board in the correct order.

Powered by Pedal Train, this website lets you to pick from a huge list of guitar pedals and helps you assemble a completely customized pedal board online.
